LG Electronics' G6 is set to launch a full-scale offensive on overseas markets, starting with North America.

On the upcoming 7th, the LG G6 will be launched by 11 North American mobile carriers, including the five major U.S. carriers—Verizon, Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile, and US Cellular. Sales will also begin in Canada on the same day.

LG Electronics is gaining popularity by setting up spaces to experience the LG G6 at over 25,000 locations, including mobile carrier stores and electronics retailers, since the end of last month.
Following North America, LG plans to sequentially supply the LG G6 to over 200 mobile carriers in major global markets including Europe, CIS, the Middle East and Africa, Asia, and Latin America.


Earlier this year, LG Electronics completed preparations for a global launch by reinforcing its supply chain to respond flexibly from components to finished product sales, including managing component supply schedules, inventory management, and supply chain diversification. The company plans to set up LG G6 experience spaces in approximately 25,000 smartphone stores in the United States and launch the device sequentially through about 200 mobile carriers in Europe, the CIS, the Middle East and Africa, Asia, and Latin America.

The G6 has been recognized for its outstanding durability after passing 14 tests under the military standard specification (MIL-STD 810G) recognized by the U.S. Department of Defense. It also won 36 Best Smartphone awards at MWC last February.

LG Electronics MC Business Division President Cho Jun-ho emphasized, “We will lead the global smartphone market with the LG G6, which features usability and quality that exceed consumer expectations.”
